[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 418379, member: 13702"] Well, one night and I learned my lesson...that was too much flex going straight from one side to the other. Three of the rod sections broke at the center ferrules the wind kicked up today. Fortunately it was before I set the snaps and before the broken poles could penetrate the cover. So, version 2.0 involves crisscrossing the poles and provides a convenient point to join them with a tarp canopy bungee. Hopefully the picture depicts it well enough to see. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Cg2stJH.jpg[/img] Unfortunately this spans a wider area and requires yet another bag of poles...so they're adding up. However, it should eliminate the cost of the webbed nylon strap so that should help. [/QUOTE]
